I have taken mine out after 4.5 weeks since I was very impatient as well.
The key here is to really take care of the pierced spots, to put alcohol or special solution as much as possible.
If you are looking to get cheap real diamond earrings check out the site below. There is nothing more classy or sophisticated the natural diamonds.

I waited 6 weeks to take mine out and they still weren;t healed... they got quite painful after i took the starter ones out..
It took about 8 weeks for mine to be ready.. so i'd wait a bit longer if I were you:)

I depends on how healed they are. If you can twist the earring ang tug on it without it hurting, you should be ok to take them out, as long as you wear only studs for about 6 months.

8 weeks is the recommended time, if you want to risk it closing or getting serious infection you can change it now.
** also, only studs for at least 1~2 years.

Best to wait 6-8 weeks, and note cleaning then to much can slow down the healing process. We have good and bad bacteria in our bodies and cleaning to often can remember the good bacteria that fights the bad.
